Small Screen Productions

Our story

Local relationships.
Stories that travel.

Independent documentary producing from Darwin, Northern Territory.

The production team working on location

We begin by listening.

Our work grows from conversations with people who have lived the history, carried the knowledge or experienced the change. Time, research and trust help us see beyond a familiar version of events.

Small Screen Productions develops and produces factual documentaries. We shape the story, build the project and guide it through production to completion.

The filmmakers

Jennifer Richards

Producer

Jennifer leads the producing work: developing projects, building relationships and bringing the people and practical elements of a documentary together.

Ian Richards

Director & cinematographer

Ian brings direction, camera craft and hands-on filmmaking experience to stories about the Territory, its people and its history.

Independently produced by Small Screen Productions, our documentaries bring together differing perspectives. Small Screen Productions retains editorial control.

From development to delivery

Producing the story.
Building the film.

We welcome conversations with broadcasters, commissioning editors, collaborators and organisations with a story suited to documentary.

Small Screen Productions leads the producing. Our production-services business, TV Works, provides filming, editing and other services needed to help deliver the films.
